"Hmm… I'd like to offer you an exchange with your plant magic, but what do you want so we can have an equal exchange?"
I could force them to do what I want, but it will be dangerous if somehow some of the elves are capable fighters or mages. And I have no interest in making a contract with them because of their cowardly nature. I'm the only one allowed to be a coward!
Well, I'm a tactical coward and the elves are coward in… many things.
If they're this afraid to every little thing, it will be dangerous for me to bring them anywhere.
"in exchange… I-I want to enter the dungeon inside the tree with you!" Tia said.
"Are you sure? I don't think you are courageous enough to fight monsters," I asked.
"I-I am the queen of the elves! I need to make sure that we live in a safe place! If that tree is a dungeon as you said, it will be dangerous if we stay here any longer. Who knows if the monsters inside will come out or not?"
